Here’s How Bobby Pins Really Got Their Name—And Whether There Was a Guy Named Bobby

100% Right coverage: 1 sources
If you’re like me, you’ve owned approximately 6,821 bobby pins in your lifetime and currently know the location of … two. I know for sure one is in my car’s cup holder. The other one is probably lodged deep in my couch cushions, next to an Easter egg I hid too well in 2016. But while I used to think of bobby pins as just tiny tools to keep hair flyaways in check, it turns out these metal doodads have a pretty wild backstory. Who invented them? W…Read Article

As a New Yorker of more than three decades, I’m not easily rattled or irked—I’ve truly seen it all. But there’s one thing that kind of gets my goat: slow walkers. Whether they’re native city dwellers or tourists from afar, bodies that clog the sidewalk while ambling at a snail’s pace can send me into a tizzy.My quick fix is to simply zip past these strollers to get where I’m going, and I strive to breathe deeply (thanks, yoga!) when I see pokey …Read Article

Here’s the Punctuation Mark Gen Z Wants You to Stop Using—And It’s Not What You Think

100% Right coverage: 1 sources
Punctuation marks may be small, but they carry a lot of weight—shaping tone, clarifying meaning and even signaling the writer’s personality. I adore the em dash; I tend to be a bit of a drama queen and employed them long before someone decreed they were a sign of AI-generated content. And, I find there’s no more satisfying way to make your point than to put a simple period on it.But one punctuation mark, once a favorite of authors and scholars, …Read Article

Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s off to Disney World we go … But it turns out not everything you need is heading there with you.

100% Right coverage: 1 sources

Would you rather eat only spicy food or only sweet food for every meal? If you could eat only one thing for breakfast for the rest of your life, what would it be? And, of course, the ever-popular one: If you could choose your last meal on Earth, what would it be?Well, the folks at Choice Mutual, an insurance a…United States · United StatesRead Article

So what gives? It’s not just about looks—it’s a calculated (and surprisingly clever) choi…Japan · JapanRead Article

Here’s Why Ice Cubes in Restaurants Have Holes

100% Right coverage: 1 sources
When I worked as a waitress, the ice machine was a constant source of awe, entertainment and sometimes low-key horror. It was a modern marvel that could instantly turn a tepid Pepsi into a frosty refreshment—when it worked, that is. Which was … not always. One restaurant I worked at even got a German cockroach infestation inside the machine, which meant we occasionally served drinks with frozen bonus critters that thawed, then crawled out to say…Boulder, Colorado · BoulderRead Article

What Is a Jellycat? Here’s Why People Are So Obsessed with These Silly Stuffed Animals

100% Right coverage: 1 sources
I was roughly eight years old when I received my first Jellycat. Judy, or “giraffe in a coat” as I called her, was a gift from my grandparents. We went everywhere together, and my budding creative brain enjoyed making up songs and writing stories about our adventures.Unsurprisingly, I was that kid who was obsessed with stuffed animals. And that trait has stuck around into adulthood. As a near-30-year-old, I still have Jellycats on the brain—and …Read Article

Here’s Why Some Flags Are Painted Backward on Airplanes

100% Right coverage: 1 sources
As my plane taxied to the gate after a recent flight to Chicago, I noticed something really odd: The American flag on a nearby aircraft heading to the runway was painted backward. Then I started spotting the same thing everywhere—flags with the stars on the right instead of the left. Even more confusing, some planes had the flag displayed in its typical orientation, with stars in the upper left and stripes flowing to the right.I figured it could…Aircraft · Las VegasRead Article
